Product | Maitake Mushroom 600mg Full Spectrum |
Package Size | 120 Tablets |
Maitake (Grifola frondosa) is the legendary Asian mushroom, revered for both
its delicious taste and health-promoting benefits. Maitake is a rich source
of beta-glucan, a long chain polysaccharide known for its ability to support
immune defenses. Unlike most other maitake products, Full Spectrum Maitake Mushroom
includes both the fruiting body and the mycelium to provide a broad range of
maitake activity.
Maitake: Rich Source of Polysaccharides
Maitake is a rare edible mushroom that is native to northern Japan. In Japanese
maitake means "Dancing Mushroom," because people would dance for joy
when they found it in deep mountain valleys. Maitake is a rich source of polysaccharides
- compounds found in some plants that are increasingly recognized for their
ability to support the body's immune defenses. Maitake's benefits are thought
to be due to specific polysaccharides known as betaglucans, which are polysaccharides
bound to proteins.
Warning: If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your health care professional before using Maitake Mushroom product.
Suggested Use: Two Maitake Mushroom tablets three times daily, between meals, or as recommended by your health care professional.
